Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is your favorite TV show of all time?
6·1 day agoThere will probably be a lot of recommendations for Breaking Bad, The Wire, The Sopranos, etc., and they’re all great.
One that tends to fly under the radar is The Americans, about a family of Soviet spies under deep cover in suburban DC. A top FBI counter-espionage agent moves in across the street, and they become close friends.
Great writing, acting, everything. One of the very best finales I’ve ever seen.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Would it be offensive for me to wear bonnets as a white person?
1·2 days agoWhen it became a thing that gangbangers wear hoodies, my nerdy white, theater kid son was in high school, and wore a black hoodie every day. The only gang that might have wanted him would have been an improv group.
It was a good opportunity to teach him about the Conservative Propaganda Machine.

Just the minorities.

2·3 days agoBecause they’re her friends, and know her, just like I know the people around me would never do that, and if MAGA arrested one of them, I’d KNOW the problem was MAGA, not my friend.
You just gave them more reasons to deny UBI.

Political backing is growing. At the beginning of this year, hardly anyone knew what a Democratic Socialist was, and now a third of Democrats identify that way, a third of Democrats are scared shitless, and the other third is clueless.
The movement toward Leftist Activism is growing so quickly, that both sides are scared of it. The 2026 Progressives are where the Tea Party was in 2010, and the Tea Party turned into MAGA, and took over. Now the Dems have the opportunity to do the same thing, except use their power for good.
Keeping the new ruling Dems on the right track to help the workers, and the not the Sociopathic Oligarchs, will be the mission after that.
If they won’t do it on they’re own, we’ll have to force them.

221·4 days agoAnytime a corporation or a politicians says they aren’t going to do something, it means they’re thinking about that subject, and they are definitely going to do it.
We make far more decisions to NOT do something, and if someone doesn’t want to do something, they just don’t do it, they don’t tell everybody. We don’t talk about the things we aren’t going to do, we talk about things we ARE going to do.
Years ago, I was in a national managers conference call meeting, and HQ started it by saying “If there are rumors of lay-offs in your office, shut them down. There are no plans for lay-offs at this time.” I don’t remember what the rest of the meeting was about, but we all walked saying “Lay-offs are coming.”
Sure enough, within two months, I was out of a job, along with a bunch of others. Within a year, several branch offices were closed. We weren’t worried about it at all, until they brought it up in the meeting.
If they’re bringing it up, they’re softening us up for it, even if they’re saying No.

62·4 days agoMarvel at how AI stopped this non-existent threat, while also giving advice on the best way to kill yourself, or get the highest kill score in a mass shooting, or hack into other corporations.
Sure, this tech isn’t ever going to start directly killing people it has determined are a problem, flipping off life support machines, crashing autonomous vehicles, etc.

Technology@lemmy.world•Illinois Governor Signs School Cellphone Ban to Avoid Student DistractionsEnglish
1·4 days agoThey need to learn that class is a place to focus on learning, and phones interrupt that learning. You think it’s an opportunity to learn self discipline, but what about the kids that aren’t as capable of that? You just let them miss their education because you allowed them to play on their phone in class, hoping they’d learn phone discipline instead of the curriculum?
Science and English classes are for Science and English, not phone discipline. They can learn phone discipline at home, and having significant breaks from constant dopamine hits throughout the day will help them do that.
When I was a student in the pre-cell phone era, you couldn’t walk into class with a boom box or small tv, and expect to enjoy those in class, even with headphones. Phones are the modern equivalent.
Phones do not belong in the classroom.
What kind of drugs?
